Bojjhaṅga Paritta ( The Seven Factors Of Enlightenment)

In Buddhism, the Seven Factors of Enlightenment (Pali: satta bojjhaṅgā or satta sambojjhaṅgā;) are:
* Mindfulness (sati) i.e. to be aware and mindful in all activities and movements both physical and mental
* Investigation (dhamma vicaya) into the nature of dhamma
* Energy (viriya)
* Joy or rapture (piti)
* Relaxation or tranquility (passaddhi) of both body and mind
* Concentration (samadhi)
* Equanimity (upekkha), to be able to face life in all its vicissitudes with calm of mind and tranquillity, without disturbance.
The Pali word bojjhanga is a compound of bodhi ("enlightenment") and anga ("factor").
